He's an idiot who did nothing more than look at box scores or w/l results. The core fundamentals of the team were missing and it has been discussed soooo much that it is beyond w/l record. Pissing a 1st quarter lead away, bazillions of yards of penalties and turnovers, poor fundamental gameplay and inexperienced buddy coaches were big problems. Officially hate that guy.

Do NOT make the mistake of letting Colin Cowherd in your head and defining your reality. If you listen to him at ALL you know that he is not interested in being right, just "interesting". He also makes no bones about rooting for teams with big demographics - TV and radio-wise. (HINT: Nebraska is not a demographic that he is afraid to piss off.) He will make plenty of hay out of "Colin being wrong" if Mike Riley turns Nebraska into a National powerhouse again. There is no downside to him trashing Nebraska right now. 99% of the country will be eating it up, and he's all about ratings.
I have the feeling that Mike Riley is going to do just fine at Nebraska. And he is probably just setting the table for Danny Langsdorf to be his successor at Head Coach in a few years.
Two things: I'm not sure why Riley has not confirmed Langsdorf yet. Not yet signed on the dotted line? Secondly, what was wrong with Rich Fisher as WR Coach?

I think hes right on alot of points except this one. Nebraska and its fans will never allow themselves to feel that its a second tier job. All of those places he mentioned were once lower tier as well but then had some good things happen and aligned well and there in the top 10. You dont get 5 NC no matter how long ago they were just by letting yourself be a lower tier team. You strive for the best.

Perception from the west coast I guess. I just came across it.

Can we please stop giving facetime to that jacka$$? He openly loathes this part of the country, and quite possibly couldn't find Nebraska on a map, viewing it as nothing but flyover country that makes his first class plane trips longer. To further add to it, he is a pro sports guy, and only follows along on college because ESPN airs most of the games, or there might be gambling interest. I value his opinion less than the random guy wandering around a WalMart parking lot.

His points about being a 2nd tier job is 100% true. His overall point is not incorrect. While he said this without 'Audio Gate II' (Pelini needed to go for cultural reasons), he's correct.

By listening to OSU's beat writer from The Oregonian. Many OSU fans wanted Banker gone and it looked like it was about to happen.

That's clearly how it work. They do a fan poll to decide what to do with coaches.
That's what happened to Cosgrove, Beck and Paps. Oh, it's not?
